From my parents' attic

[url]https://www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=10158008621858723&set=a.100972723722 I started cleaning out my parents' attic and I found these. They look to be from 1979. The signatures do not appear to be from Holmes, although I'm pretty much at a loss to ID them. Also, does anybody collect this sort of thing? On edit: I changed to a link because I can't make the picture show.

2 is definitely Bud. 1 is... Reed Cordero, obviously

Unrelated, but I saw a picture of Andre Dawson's signature this weekend. https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51lqM8wl1PL._AC_SX425_.jpg> https://fanatics.frgimages.com/FFImage/thumb.aspx?i=/productimages/_3911000/ff_3911047-bd1067b1f71832876000_full.jpg&w=900> I cannot reconcile how such a terrifying man has such a girly signature. I half expected there to be a butterfly at the end.

If #2 is Bud, then #1 is also. I'm more interested in the content. How basic does it get down to? The number of bases and outs?

I don't have a lot Met autographs, maybe a half dozen. I dug this out since Bud came up. It means a lot to me (even more than my Seaver) because I met Bud at a signing at The Danbury Mall waiting for some suit pants to be hemmed to wear to my Mom's funeral the next day. http://www.kcmets.com/CPF/budauto.png>
